Top 10 NHL Goalie Masks of All-Time

Why is it that most of the cool looking and innovative masks were only around in the 70s? Don’t get me wrong, some of today’s NHL designs are cool looking, but seeing a country singer on the side of Carey Price’s mask doesn’t exactly give me goosebumps. For years I credited Brodeur for maintaining his same design, but this year he switched it up to promote his new MB30 brand. Is it a coincidence that he missed almost the entire season for the first time with an injury? Nonetheless, here are the top 10 masks of all-time. Well at least in my opinion anyways.

(2) Ed Belfour, Blackhawks. His original design has become a staple in the mask design industry, and created an image for Belfour. When asked for comment, Belfour says the design is worth “one billion dollars”.

I played my entire hockey career goaltending without a mask.
I quess the closest modern equivalent would be a dunce cap, which would have provided about the same protection. (But that Bromley mask is a s cool today as it was then.)
You are now free to take shots at my smarts or lack thereof.
No raisees though.

Found a good site that lists a ton of goaltenders masks (http://www.goaliesarchive.com/masks.html) but was depressed when I saw that they had Bobby Essensa’s as a Canuck, Sabre and Oiler but not as a Jet. Looked for Eldon ‘Pokey’ Reddick. Nowhere to be found.
